Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1887-06-25

Stewart was q business man OF great
ability. As clerk for Mills & Sons, bus
pleasant, business-ike manners drew and
retained many customers for the nrm.
who realized that they were dealing with
one upon whose extensive mercantile ex-
perience they could place more than
usual reliance, and these customers trust
that the Bounteous Hand will give to MI.
Stewart generously OF his treasures.
A freak of nature was displayed in the
northern heavens yesterday morning IN
the form of a cloud which reached from
the western horizon upward and eastward,
like a great, gray rope, until it passed
before the morning sun and terminated
in sharp point little way beyond:
Very soon q second, and then third
cloud, like unto the first, made similar
journey across the heavens, just above
the FIRST, and thus they remained for
about an hour, when the first gradually
decreased in size and length, and the two
upper ones were merged into one.
The comrades, fraternal sisters and
friends of Mr.. and Mrs. John Burns are
spending to-day at their home, not as
guests, but as volunteer helpers. Mr..
Burns condition is better, but he is still
too weak to perform farm labor, and his
Grand Army brothers and other friends
are but too glad to have an opportunity
to "give him q lift" in his work. The
Relief Corps women, not to be outdone
by their brothers, will lend assistance to
their sister, Mrs. Burns. This is the true
work of the Grand Army and Relief Corps,
and every illustration of it increases
the reputation of the orders.
